Roundtable 3: Regional Gas Integration – Infrastructure, Pipelines & Cross-Border Cooperation

Connecting Supply to Demand: Building a Regional Gas Network Across Latin America and the Caribbean. As Venezuela moves to unlock its vast natural gas resources, the success of its gas strategy will depend not only on production — but on infrastructure integration and cross-border cooperation. With neighbouring markets facing supply shortages, high energy costs and limited domestic capacity, the opportunity exists to build a connected regional gas system that delivers value for all stakeholders. This closed-door, invite-only roundtable brings together governments, operators, infrastructure developers and investors to explore how Venezuela can integrate into regional markets through pipelines, LNG infrastructure and collaborative frameworks, and what it will take to turn these opportunities into bankable, executable projects.
